I just finished making a wiring chart for my Pioneer Premier P360 that was in my Subaru, and I'm going to be installing it tomorrow. I was wondering how you can tell if you have the factory amp or not?

 

simply look into FSM, all variants of stock audio are described there, including locations of amps

 

Sweet thanks. I just finished wiring my heaud unit up and I have power, but no sound.. I'm pissed off and going to bed.

 

drop the passenger side speaker enclosure. the amp was in there, a few screws/snips and its out

 

Well, it's wired correctly. Should the head unit power the speakers with the factory amp in place?

 

NM, I figured it out, I unhooked the POS and threw it acroos my garage and now everything is fine after hooking the wires together..

 

amen to that

I had the same problem, the only thing I did differently was not throw the amp across the garage

 

Yeah, do not use the front speaker wire that comes out of the dash, just wire it completley up from scratch. That means disconnect the amp, and put your 4" in the old speakers place, wire up the speaker and run the new wire to the deck from there, same with the other side.

 

across the yard??, street? football field??

mine flew halfway down the driveway when it came out
